“Pecans stud the pie crust. Then there 's a sweetened cream cheese layer, a whipped cream layer, a sliced banana layer, a chocolate layer, more bananas, and finally, more whipped cream. And, of course, more pecans are sprinkled over the top.”

Let me say that, because of what was on hand, I changed this a bit but am certain the original is even better and this turned out wonderful! I used a graham cracker crust and no nuts for swiftness and ease. Also, because I was afraid I would run out of room, did not use all of the second banana - and could and should have. Everything else was as directed. Mouth full of awesomeness with each bite. Can't wait to try it with the pecans in the crust; just didn't have time to make a crust! Thanks for sharing, Jeannette

I haven't tried it yet so I gave it three stars for the instructions--no mention of the milk necessary to make the pudding in the ingredient list. Also, if you read through, it appears as though perhaps you're supposed to add a second layer of bananas before the final layer of whipped cream (how stiff should that cream be?) All in all, this sounds great and I'm going to make it tomorrow. But it will be more like when I come up with an idea of my own and make it on the spot, winging it, if you will, rather than following a clear recipe. Something clearly was "lost in translation."

Loved this pie! It was super easy to make. The only change I made was to add banana pudding to the whipped cream instead of adding sugar. It adds a yummy taste to the whipped cream and helps to keep the whipped cream from getting runny.

Yum!! I made this for a "Super Bowl" party. I didn't whip the cream for the top until an hour before I was ready to serve it. I garnished it with a few chopped pecans and some shaved chocolate. It was so pretty and so good! Everyone loved it! The next time I made it, I took it over the top by making the home made pie filling for "Double Chocolate Pie" which was enough for the two pies I needed. I continued with the recipe as posted and it was to die for!
